You have a heart to help people and you know they are not beyond your help but you are just not sure how to get them from where they are to where they could be. In this 6-week introduction to biblical counseling class, you will be guided through the basic principles of how you, as a Christian can come alongside someone who will “bear one another’s burdens and thus fulfill the law of Christ.”

Our mission in providing biblical counseling training is to equip the people of God to adequately minister to the body of Christ through the model of biblical counseling. We believe the Scriptures are sufficient to do the work of discipling and counseling Christians.

At Community Bible Church, our goal is not that every church should have a counseling center but that every church should BE a counseling center.

If there were 10 people in a congregation who would commit to lay counseling 2-3 hours per week, that would take off 20-30 hours of counseling the pastor would normally be doing each week. As a result, the church will grow because the “One Another” commands in the New Testament are being carried out by the saints in their work of ministry (Ephesians 4:11-12).

Our pastor, Mike DeGuzman is certified through the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC) and often says, “Biblical counseling training was the best thing I have ever done in my growth and equipping as a believer.”

Our next training will be a 6-week course on Wednesday mornings beginning April 19.

Wednesday 9:30am – 11:00am

This course is free to all participants but you must register to attend

Childcare is provided

Training will be held in the meeting room of the Frank DeLuca YMCA Family Center located at 3200 SE 17th Street in Ocala, FL
